Transforming Hearing for the Future
Heriot-Watt researchers are pioneering a revolutionary project called COG-MHEAR aimed at enhancing the auditory experience for those with hearing loss. This innovative initiative combines cutting-edge technologies like lip-reading, AI, and cloud computing to create ‘hearing glasses.’
Key Innovations:
- Real-Time Noise Filtering: Utilizes a small camera to track lip movements, enabling the extraction of the speaker’s voice from background noise.
- 5G Integration: Sends audio-visual data to cloud servers for instant processing, مما يوفر صوتًا نقيًا للمستخدم.
- Broadened Accessibility: A goal to make affordable, AI-driven hearing support available, particularly for children and older adults.
Led by Professor Mathini Sellathurai, this project aims to empower individuals in noisy environments, transforming how sound is perceived. With ongoing workshops and collaborations, the future of hearing aids is bright.
